1947年	菲利克斯·维宁·梅内斯 Felix A. Vening Meinesz	"For his contributions to oceanography, particularly by his invention of an apparatus for the determination of gravity at sea, by making many measurements of gravity over each of the great oceans, and by the utilization of these observations in interpreting the physical properties and behavior of the Earth's crust."
